ollie had an interdigital cyst. the vet gave me expensive cream. it didn't work. i used 'nature's aid' from any health food store. it went away in 2 days, and it doesn't hurt.

Yes I tried prep H for a week and it didn"t work I tried drawing salve and panalog just about everything there is to try antibotics work for a month, allegry shots didn"t help steriod shots work for a month, Gunny goes to the doctor this Thursday as a last resort I think he wants to try atopica it"s about 250.00 a month but what do you do if it works I don"t care if it"s 500.00

i was wondering have you ever had gunny on a bland diet? i say this because like you i had tried everything on sarahs cysts. she had been on like 15 foods anti biotics soaks shampoos all that to no avail. then she had a severe reaction to her kibble and i put her on a bland diet well i thought she was allergic to rice so it was boiled chicken for 4 days and every single cyst that she had went away. i was like what? doesnt have to be chicken can be lowfat hamburger and rice. just a thought before you spend 300 dollars for another test. with all of her allergies to food she cannot have but 1/2 cup of kibble with canned and some freeze dried food. also have you ever given your bully benadryl or zyrtec. just a thought. sorry if you have already done these things and i will well for gunny. :D

please try nature's aid before you spend money. i'm serious...it worked in 2 days, and the cyst has not returned. plus, it sinks in right away and you just have to watch him for 5 minutes to make sure he doesn't lick.

When you had the allergy test done --- do they do it for food allergies or just environmental? My boy, Nitschke suffered with them for a while too -- once we did the allergy test (full blood screen) -- it cam back that he was allergic to RICE. Within two weeks of getting rice out of his diet, they were gone and he never got another one. Also, those darn allergy shots are worthless, we did them with Nitchke for a year and our vet told us, your better of just using benedryl.
